Graduate Supervision System

The Graduate Supervision System (GSS) is used by
supervisors each term to review, monitor and comment
on their students' academic progress and to assess
skills and training needs. Students are given the
opportunity to contribute by commenting on their own
academic progress.

Students will receive a report of their termly
supervision from their supervisor. Supervision
reporting is controlled by a timetable with automatic
email notifications and reminders. Submitted reports
are immediately available to the student, supervisor
and DGS for review. Additionally, subject
administrators, college advisors, college
administrators and scholarship and funding
administrators are able to view reports.

Each divisional Code of Practice for Supervision of
research students offers guidance on the maximum
number of students that should be supervised by each
supervisor, the typical number of meetings per term
between supervisor and supervisee, and policies for
support for new supervisors:
